Have you noticed that Trump only won the presidency when he had a woman opponent? Both times.
That says more about us as a country and our failure to recognize the power of women than it does about him as a man.

475 South Korean nationals taken into custody by Trump‘s immigration authorities because they had the audacity to be WORKING in a $7.6 billion plant that’s the biggest economic development project in the history of Georgia.
If you’re South Korea, would YOU continue to invest in a place like this?

This is an actual exchange from a VP who took an oath to defend the constitution and, as a citizen, is expected to abide by the law.
May we one day have accountability for the grotesque lawlessness of this regime.

This should be getting far more attention from the media, and it should be investigated as a hate crime.
A 14-year-old Black teen was targeted, beaten, and dehumanized with racial slurs by white teens while people stood around cheering.

3 guys, none with infectious disease or pedatric expertise, just ran roughshod over normal procedures to block COVID shots for kids, pregnant people. This is so awful & insane & we should treat it as such. Reporters, you're on notice. Both sides this at your peril & watch your credibitlity evaporate

I wrote about some details that the Trump administration might not want to come to light when it comes to what kind of deal Trump has truck with Bukele asharangappa.substack.com/p/whats-the-...
What's the Real Quid Pro Quo with Bukele?
Hint: It's not about fighting "terrorism," or stopping illegal immigration.

The Trump White House’s message—“Do not retaliate and you will be rewarded”—echoes coercive patterns often linked to narcissistic abuse. Trump, a convicted felon found liable for sexual abuse, continues using power to reframe submission as virtue and dissent as threat.

Trump chose to attend a Saudi-sponsored golf tournament rather than welcome home the remains of four soldiers. The vice president didn’t attended either. They don’t even pretend to care about service members.
